Media Reviews

Despite a 10-day, 30-recipe food plan and a less-is-more exercise regime, however, readers may have trouble using the information to create a lifestyle that will fulfill the authors' promise of weight loss, disease prevention and longevity.

This lighthearted book will be most useful to those who like their health lessons served with a side of humor.' - Publishers Weekly.
